Giants WR Slayton ruled out for game vs. Eagles
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has been ruled out for Thursday night’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles because of a hamstring injury.
The Giants (1-4) are already without star wide receiver Malik Nabers, who tore his ACL several weeks back.
Slayton was injured late in Sunday’s 26-14 loss to the New Orleans Saints. He was listed as a nonparticipant in a practice projection all this week.
